These are from my understanding which I heard from great people like Variyar and other great gurus.<br /><br />"<strong>GOD created us*</strong>" - this is one of the most common phrase that I hear. I used to wonder if HE created us,<br />· Why should he create us to suffer?<br />· How can his creation be with so many flaws?<br /><br />I had this question unanswered with me, searching for answers. After all our whole life is meant for searching something.<br /><br />Some search for<br /><br />· Sivam<br />· Money<br />· Happiness<br />· Knowledge<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;color:#666666;">Life becomes standstill without a search. Like Google helps us to get out search item – we all must have a guru to guide us in our search.<br /><br />“<strong>Guruvai varuvai arulvai guhane</strong>” –<br /><br />HE is our “<strong>Parmagurunathar</strong>” – without guru we cannot reach our destination. What is destination? I will take this up next.<br /><br />I had an interesting conversation with my grandfather “<em>ThirupugazMani</em>” –<br /><br />Thirumandhiram says “<strong>Endru Nee Andru Naan</strong>” – By this thirumoolar says that “I am from the time when you(god) were there”<br /><br />So we co-exist with him. There are 3 things that are immortal<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;color:#666666;">Sivam<br />Our Souls<br />Worldy things<br /><br />So this gets the answers my 2 questions. But this gets me another question, I have heard that our paramagurunathar also does the job of creation<br />When we are not created by him, then what does he create?<br /><br />That where we have a misconception. Our lord created this magnificent temple called human body to house our souls. He created this whole world and a perfect environment to live in. It all his creation.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="color:#666666;"><strong>Destination Sivam<br /></strong>Coming to the destination, why did GOD create?<br />Our paramagurunathar could have been in an everlasting penance. Why did he create the world?<br /><br />As mentioned before the 3 things that exist all along are of three types<br />Sivam – knows everything without learning<br />Our Souls – Knows only when it is taught<br />Wordly – Does not know even when taught<br /><br />Our gurunathar knows that when we are taught we can reach him. So he created the world for the souls to learn and attain the utmost state.<br /><br />He taught us the way to reach him by his various disciples like Arunagirinathar, Manivasagar, Variyar Swamigal and so on….<br /><br />We all can only reach through his grace. He must come to us as our guru and purify our souls.<br /><br />“<strong>Guruvai varuvai arulvai guhane</strong>” –<br /><br /><br />We all are jeevathmas; we have got to join the paramathma.<br /><br /><br />* - us here refers to our souls</span></span></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7833261-116508656632525134?l=aravindsivam.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Aravindhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01623756109806663408noreply@blogger.com2
